Frankenstein; or, the modern prometheus — Page 9
他知道没有人能比他自己更温柔、更细心地照料我;
He knew that I could not have a more kind and attentive nurse than himself;
他对我康复抱有坚定的希望,
and, firm in the hope he felt of my recovery,
他毫不怀疑,自己非但没有造成伤害,反而是在尽其所能地善待他们。
he did not doubt that, instead of doing harm, he performed the kindest action that he could towards them.
但我实际上病得很重,若非朋友无微不至、始终如一的照料,我恐怕难以重获生命。
But I was in reality very ill, and surely nothing but the unbounded and unremitting attentions of my friend could have restored me to life.
那个被我赋予生命的怪物的形象,永远萦绕在我眼前,
The form of the monster on whom I had bestowed existence was for ever before my eyes,
我不停地胡言乱语,反复谈论着他。
and I raved incessantly concerning him.
我的话无疑令亨利感到惊讶;
Doubtless my words surprised Henry;
起初他以为那不过是我神志不清时的胡言乱语,
he at first believed them to be the wanderings of my disturbed imagination,
但我执着地一再回到同一个话题,最终使他相信,我的病症确实源于某件非同寻常、令人恐惧的事件。
but the pertinacity with which I continually recurred to the same subject persuaded him that my disorder indeed owed its origin to some uncommon and terrible event.
我的康复极为缓慢,期间数度复发,令朋友又惊又忧。
By very slow degrees, and with frequent relapses that alarmed and grieved my friend, I recovered.
我记得,当我第一次能够带着某种愉悦去观察外界事物时,
I remember the first time I became capable of observing outward objects with any kind of pleasure,
我发现落叶已经消失,嫩芽正从遮蔽我窗户的树枝上悄然抽出。
I perceived that the fallen leaves had disappeared and that the young buds were shooting forth from the trees that shaded my window.
那是一个美好的春天,这个季节对我的康复大有裨益。
It was a divine spring, and the season contributed greatly to my convalescence.
我也感到喜悦与爱意在心中重新苏醒;
I felt also sentiments of joy and affection revive in my bosom;
我的忧郁消散了,不久之后我便恢复了往日的开朗,仿佛从未被那致命的激情所侵袭。
my gloom disappeared, and in a short time I became as cheerful as before I was attacked by the fatal passion.
